Getting ready for summer here!

We have so many great new poly/spandex prints that have just come in. They will be online next week and have already hit the sales floor. I love this plaid. 

It comes in eight color ways. 

How fun would this be in a vintage swimsuit? 

Or this boy short and top are great.

We have a few swim suit patterns online and I will be adding more over the next few weeks. I guess it's time to get back to the gym,. The sun is back and it's time for summer!

Enjoy!

Progress....

Here are a few pics of the dress & romper that we're working on. Both these fabrics are brand new and caught my eye as I was doing one of my weekly "walk-throughs" through the warehouse. Both projects are well under way & should be done by the end of this week.

DressPattern: Simplicity 1804 (ML244255)
Fabric: ML244085
Supplies: Scissors or rotary cutter, tape measure, elastic, pins, wonder tape, fusible tricot (ML244260)

Since the salvage rolled, it had to be trimmed off.

The proper needles make all the difference.

Don't forget to iron the pattern before you put it on the fabric. This will make the pattern easier to work with. 

Tricot knit fusible interfacing & elastic

Pinning bodice to skirt.

Pinning interfacing to neckline.

RomperPattern: Marcy Tilton V8813
Fabric: ML243985 (cut  yards for a size 6)
Supplies: Scissors or rotary cutter, tape measure, pins



Measure the grain line to salvage to make sure it is straight.



Again, iron the pattern to make sure it lays flat on the fabric.



By the end of the week we will have the finished product ready.

Enjoy!
